The protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! world might be the same person.

He then raised his Duel Disk and continued, "So, according to the effect of [Contact Gate], I banish Dark Panther and Flame Beetle from my Graveyard, and Special Summon Earth Mole and Sky Hummingbird from my Deck."

Buzz!

Two beams of light flashed, and the figures of the earth mole and the sky hummingbird were instantly projected.

Earth Mole: Attack Power 90 (out of 0)

Sky Hummingbird: Defense 600

"At this moment, due to the effect of the [Awakened Three Phantoms], my life value has been enhanced."

【'Maldive': LP4000→5700】

Jaden wasn't annoyed and immediately revealed his third spell card: "Next, I activate the spell card [Neuro Fusion], sending [Elemental HERO Neos] and [Neo-Spacian: Radiant Moss] from my deck to the Graveyard..."

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 4 → 3]

After placing two cards into the graveyard, he immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Appear, [Elemental HERO Radiant Neos]!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a rainbow-colored radiance burst forth, and Ultraman, emitting a faint fluorescent glow, appeared from the light.

【Elemental Heroes: Radiant Neos - Attack Power 2500】

"Useless!" 'Maldon' sneered and shouted, "Using the effect of [Awakened Three Phantoms] once again, my health points increase the attack power of Radiant Neos."

【'Maldive': LP5700→8200】

Chapter 233 The Seven Essences' Unraveling Gate

"His health has been restored to 8200 points in one go, what a troublesome guy..."

Jaden gritted his teeth, then pointed at Ultraman beside him and shouted, "I activate the special effect of [Elemental Hero Shining Neos]!"

Destroy 1 face-up card on your opponent's field, and that card gains the following effect of that card type: This effect can only be used once per turn during your Main Phase 1.

● Monster Card - This card cannot battle this turn.

● Spell Card - This card can directly attack the opponent.

●Trap Card - This card is changed to Defense Position.

'Maldon' dismissed this, sneering, "That effect is useless against Phantoms. As long as Paradise Lost is on the field, Phantoms cannot be targeted by the opponent's effects, nor can they be destroyed by the opponent's effects."

"Then I will destroy the [Awakened Three Phantom Demons], Explosive Light Bullet!"

At Judai's command, the Radiant Neos immediately pushed forward with both hands, and a red light bullet was formed, instantly striking the opponent.

boom!

In the blink of an eye, the trap card next to 'Malden' was blasted to pieces by the light bullet.

"whispering sound!"

This trap card has a very powerful effect, and it's a real shame that it can't be used anymore.

Jaden then added, "Since the destroyed card was a Trap Card, Radiant Neos is now in Defense Position."

Immediately, Ultraman crouched down in a defensive stance.

【Elemental Heroes: Radiant Neos - Defense 2000】

"Earth Mole doesn't calculate damage during battle, return the opponent's monster and Earth Mole to your hand!" He then waved his hand and shouted, "Battle begins! Earth Mole attacks Hamon!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the drill on the Earth Mole's shoulder went over its head and it charged at the Thunder Emperor.

"A card specifically designed to counter Phantom Demons? Surprisingly troublesome..."

'Maldon' calmly shouted, "Activate the trap card, [Chaos Explosion]!"

"When the opponent's monster declares an attack, you can sacrifice one of your monsters to destroy the attacking monster and inflict 1000 damage to the opponent."

The summoning god immediately crashed into the attacking earth mole, perishing together with it.

Boom! Boom—!

"Uh-huh...!"

[Yujo Jaden: LP4000→3000]

"Heh heh heh, feeling the pain, Judai? But the pain I'm experiencing is far more intense!"

Hearing 'Maldon's' words, Jaden became even more confused.

Who exactly are you...?

However, before Judai could get any information, he was interrupted by the other party.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to declare the end of the round?"

It seems that He doesn't intend to tell Judai directly, but rather wants him to remember something.

"Then I activate the monster effect of Sky Hummingbird. For each card in my opponent's hand, I recover 500 Life Points."

In an instant, four large red flowers sprouted from 'Marden's' hand, and the Sky Hummingbird absorbed their energy to repair the damage to Judai.

[Yujo Jaden: LP3000→5000]

"My turn is over."

"At the same time, according to the effect of Radiant Neos, this card should return to the Extra Deck at the end of the turn, but I can banish a [Neuro Fusion] card from my Graveyard instead, and Radiant Neos will remain on my field."

With the end of the tenth generation declaration, control has once again fallen to 'Marden'.

"My turn..."

"And I activate the effect of the Field Spell [Paradise Lost] once again, drawing two cards from my deck."

[Maldives' hand cards: 4→7]

"Hmph, now let me show you the form of the second Phantom Demon..." After glancing at his hand, he placed a card into the Spell & Trap Card slot without hesitation.

"I activate the Continuous Spell [Seven Essences Unlock] from my hand!"

[Maldives' hand cards: 7→6]

Rumble rumble rumble...!

With a tremor of the earth, seven stone pillars suddenly rose from the ground, completely surrounding the area. The next moment, the seven stone pillars were connected by electricity, transforming into a barrier.

Everyone was greatly surprised to see this.

Asuka: "Aren't these the seven stone tablets that sealed the three Phantom Demons?"

Misawa: "Could it be that the barrier sealing the Three Phantom Demons has been moved here?"

At this moment, 'Marden's' smile became even more maniacal: "Based on the effect of 'Seven Essences' when it is activated, I can add 'Divine Flame Emperor Uria,' 'Thunder Emperor Hamon,' 'Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiel,' or any monster with the name of these cards to my hand from my deck."

"Is it coming...?" Judai stared intently at his opponent, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Soon, 'Maldives' picked out a card from the deck.

"The card I chose is [Dark Summoning God], and I activate another effect of [Seven Essences' Gate] by discarding this card as a cost."

Without any hesitation, He threw the card He had just retrieved into the graveyard and said, "The effect of [Seven Spirits' Gate] is: once per turn, discard one card from your hand and Special Summon one Fiend-Type monster from your graveyard with zero ATK and DEF."

"I have [Dark Summoner] in my graveyard, but I can also summon cards that have just been sent to the graveyard."

"Come forth, [Summoner of Darkness]!"

In the darkness, a thick, black fog spread its enormous wings and transformed into the form of a black demon, its lower body adorned with a blood-red skirt.

[Dark Summoner God: Attack Power 0]

Manjoume: "Another monster with zero attack power. What is that guy plotting?"

The answer will be revealed soon...

'Maldon' immediately activated the ability to summon a god: "The effect of [Dark Summoning God] is activated!"

"Offer the summoning god as a tribute, and Special Summon one [Divine Flame Emperor Uria], [Thunder Emperor Hamon], or [Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiel] from your hand or deck, ignoring the summoning conditions."

Jim: "What? It ignores the summoning conditions again, and this time it can even be summoned from the deck?"

"Hahahaha, come out, [Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiel]!"

As the wind howled, the summoning god transformed into a pillar of cyan energy that shot towards the sky, and a gigantic, malevolent, azure demon king descended before them.

【Phantom Demon Emperor Rabiel: Attack Power 4000】

Roar—!! ×2

As Rabiel appeared, the two trolls roared excitedly, wishing they could tear the human who had killed them to pieces immediately.

Jaden broke out in a cold sweat at the sight. 'Even if the Three Phantom Demons are reduced to mere malice, their remaining power is still not to be underestimated...'

Chapter 234 Order New Universe Knight

(PS: There was a mistake in the previous chapter; the negative effects of summoning the god were omitted. So I've made a slight correction. You can refresh the chapter to see it.)

Roar—!! ×乀2

As Rabiel appeared, the two trolls roared excitedly, wishing they could tear the human who had killed them to pieces immediately.

Jaden broke out in a cold sweat at the sight. 'Even if the Three Phantom Demons are reduced to mere malice, their remaining power is still not to be underestimated...'

'Maldon' said with a sneer, "During the turn that the effect of [Dark Summoning God] was used, monsters cannot attack."

"So I'll set up two more cards, and then the turn ends."

[Maldives' hand cards: 6→4]

Just then, Jaden spoke up: "During your End Phase, according to the effect of Radiant Neos, this card returns to the Extra Deck."

Immediately, Ultraman transformed into a beam of light and flew back to Jaden's deck.

"And the moment this card returns to the Deck, I activate another effect of [Contact Gate] from the Graveyard."

If you control a face-up Fusion Monster that requires Elemental HERO Neos monster material to return to your Extra Deck, you can banish this card from your Graveyard to activate this effect. Special Summon 1 of your banished Neos Sector Monsters.

He then drew a card from his hand and shouted, "Activate the trap card [New Space Expansion] at this very moment!"

"Nani?" *Swoosh* ○:〖!∪

Jaden had no face-down cards on the field, yet he claimed to have activated a trap card, which startled everyone.

Jaden then explained: "The effect of [New Space Expansion] is that this card can be activated from the hand even when you have no cards on your field."

[Yuki Jaden's hand cards: 4 → 3]

"Based on this card's effect, I can Special Summon up to one of the same name 'Neo Spacian' monsters and any number of 'Elemental HERO Neos' monsters from my hand or Graveyard in Defense Position. The effects of the monsters Special Summoned by this effect are negated."

"Awaken, Radiant Moss, Earth Mole, Sky Hummingbird, and... Neocosm Warriors!"

Buzz buzz!

Four beams of light flashed, and four completely different monsters were projected onto his field one after another.

[New Space Knight - Radiant Moss: Defense 900]

【New Space Ranger - Earth Mole: Defense 300】

【New Space Knight - Sky Hummingbird: Defense 600】

【Elemental Hero Neos: Defense 2000】

"At the same time, based on the effect of [Contact Gate], Special Summon [Neo Space Ranger: Flame Beetle]!"

Suddenly, a flame erupted from the ground, and the figure of the fire beetle appeared in front of him.

"Based on the effect of the Flame Beetle, its attack power increases by 400 for each Spell/Trap card on the opponent's field."

[New Space Warrior - Flame Beetle: Attack Power 500 → 2100]

"Summoned five monsters at once?!"

"Amazing!"

Everyone gasped when they saw that Judai had covered the entire area in an instant.

'Maldon' clicked his tongue inwardly and said, "However, since you have summoned a large number of monsters on your field, according to Rabiel's effect, Special Summon three [Phantom Tokens]."

Three smaller Phantom Emperors, curled up, instantly appeared beneath Rabiel's feet.

[Phantom Derivative: Defense 1000] ×3

Next, it was Judai's turn to play.

"My turn, draw a card!"
